Study Overview
Brief Summary
We plan to carry out six weeks randomized clinical trial. We will compare the effectiveness between sensorimotor exercise and strengthening exercise in community-dwelling older adult. This study aims to determine the community-dwelling older adults’ sociodemographic characteristics, baseline comparison at pretest and determine the effectiveness of sensorimotor exercise on overall function and quality of life during the posttest and twelve-weeks follow-up also. We expect better treatment outcome after 18 sessions of intervention in community-dwelling older adult who receive sensorimotor exercise along with conventional care.
